b. protection against excessive bail
c. the right to a lawyer, even if a defendant cant afford one
d. freedom of the press

Explanation:

The incorporation doctrine applies most Bill of Rights protections to states via the 14th Amendment's Due Process Clause. Freedom of assembly (1st Amendment), right to court-appointed counsel (6th Amendment, via Gideon v. Wainwright), and freedom of the press (1st Amendment) are all incorporated. The 8th Amendment's protection against excessive bail has not been fully incorporated to apply to state governments.

Answer:

B. Protection against excessive bail
